Google Translate


I would like to share my experience with this tool which I find very useful.

I made friendship with Erasmus student named Frida (Sweden).

I wrote on her wall (facebook), but she didn’t replay because she wasn’t on the internet at the moment.
I needed some info. urgently. I was a bit desperate so I wrote on my facebook wall “Iščem Frido” (in Slovene, which is a very hard language, “I’m searching for Frida” in English) it was totally irrelevant.
When I wrote that, I was quite sure that she won’t notice my post, or even more probably she will not understand Slovene.

Next day we’ve meet and she tells me “you searched for me”, a saw that on facebook!

“Ohhh… you know Slovene language… you are a fast learner, I am stunt by your intelligence”, I replied.

“NO, I JUST USED GOOGLE TRANSLATE” was her answer!
